OMG!!! I will pray for your kitty!! I totally understand how you feel. My friends think that I have some kind of disorder because I treat my cats like real babies (which to me they are)!! Good luck tomorrow and keep me posted!!

I'm sorry your so stressed. Your definantly in my prayers. I don't have a cat but I love my puppy so much I'd be torn if something happend to her. Now a few years ago she got a lump on her side and I was sure it was cancer. It turned out its just scar tissue. She's an inside dog so it surprised me but they said it could be caused from a wound, or from anything like a sprain or strain. I hope that it comes back that instead of cancer. God bless!

I too, am an animal lover and totally understand. It could be just a cyst or a swollen gland. I'll think positive thoughts for you as well as for your kitty.

Me and my kitties (also my babies!) will keep you and your kitty in our prayers. I really believe that I wouldn't be able to get through half of what life throws at me without my fur-babies, and I don't know what I'd do without them! Keep us posted, and again, I'll keep your kitty in my prayers!

I completely understand! I go crazy when anything happens to my dog. It is good DH is brining your kitty to the vet so you can find out what it is but it is probably just a cyst or something they can remove easily. I will be praying for you and your kitty!

I completely understand. I had two cats and one dog. I lost my oldest baby and inherited another dog. So now I have two dogs and one cat. I love my dogs, but miss my cat even now and its almost been a year. I will definitely keep you and your kitty in my prayers. I use to think others would think I needed to be committed b/c I would miss work to take care of my kitty. Blessings to you and your kitty.

oh i feel so bad I have a cat to and he is so wonderful. I know how u feel I will say pray for u and kitty.

Please don't stress! Everything will be fine! Is it bleeding? Is it a whitish growth?

My cat Mr. Biggs had a weird growth thingy on his chin. I FREAKED, thought it was cancer took him to the vet and it turned out to be a Sebaceous cyst, which is NOT cancer. In fact, a few more have popped up around his body and he is fine.

I can understand your worry because these animals become part of our families and are our own babies. I love my boys so much and have to talk myself off the ledge when I even think about them being gone...you are not crazy and do not have a disorder...you have a big heart and you love your baby.

I can even tell by my cats meow what he needs...now THAT'S crazy!

We have five (which is way too many by the way) but one little thing and we freak out. Next week we are spending up to $700 to have one guy's teeth cleaned. We can't afford IVF, but this we doo a few weeks before Christmas!

It could just be from him scratching it .

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers in my moment of stress!! My kitty has a big pocket of infection....GROSS I know but not cancer. Vet said he probably scratched it or my other cat bit him while they were playing and it just got infected. They shaved his neck and the spot is much larger than I originally thought. Poor baby. He is on antibiotic for 2 weeks and if it does not go away, they will biopsy it. Vet told my husband she really did not feel it was cancer even though she could not guarantee and that anything we did beyond antibiotics right now, she felt was a waste of money. Nice of her to be honest since I would take out a second mortgage to save my cat :) Sick, I know but true.
So, my poor kitty is not dying!!
